I’ve caught them on big crankbaits in Gibbons Creek reservoir. I’ve caught a few on small streamers. I’ve caught more on small weighted nymphs than anything else. That’s a good ‘un!

I’ll bet that tilapia is a lot better eating than the grocery store ones raised on a fish farm.

I’ve caught some tilapia in the sugar Land area with rooster tails —- they put up a nice fight for their size.

It was a different world when we were boys and girls....

As mentioned VERY good eating.

PB flathead 34.5 lbs - I know it's small but it was still the record for Lake Travis when I caught it!
PB Blue 58.5 lbs jugline 43.5 lbs on R&R which was the other Lake Travis record when caught.
